Adding horn section gives group new life CALGARY CP horn section has blown new life into the sagging fortunes of The Stampeders rock band from Calgary Once threeman outfit The Stampeders grew last spring when lead guitarist Rich Dod son bassist Ronnie King and drummer Ken Berly added twoman brass section rhythm guitarist and second drummer The result two hit singles Playing In the Band and Sweet Love Bandit and topselling album Hit The Road It was time for change Berly said in an interview We had gone as far as we could as trio Our songs were requiring too much work in the studio so we decided that rather than bring in extrasession mu sicians we would get more guys in the band and make our new sound more permanent The new sound has surprised the bands hardcore fans but appears to be getting The Stam peders out of rut IIAlNTED BY FIRST HIT Their first major hit Sweet City Woman earned the trio the countryrock tag Dodsons song sold more than one million copies and led to Juno award in 1972 but haunted the group as they attempted to keep pace with The Guess Who Bachnian Iurner Overdrive and Rush in the liiited States market As far as getting dates and air play in the States Sweet tit Woman was probany one of the worst things that could have happened to us King said It was nice tune that Rich wrote but it wasnt really the style of music we were into It was so hard to get away from though because all the radio stations were looking for an other banjotype song We released songs like Wild Eyes and Devil Y0u to almost beg people to realize that we areforemosta rocknroll band Despite string of reasonably successful domestic hits and numerous national and international tours The Stam peders were unable to establish themselves as topiine act in the US PAUSED T0 REGROUP Their career reached low point following an inauspicious tour of Western Canada in the summer of 1974 It was time when we knew we were slowing down Berly said We had bit of lull for few months to rethink what we were doing The result was that we came out kicking with Steamin Steamin was noholds barred rock album in which the band did remakes of such oldies as New Orleans and Hit The Road Jack Hit The Road Jack was to cused on wellknown US disc jockey Wolfman Jack and re kindled US interest in The Stampeders Wolfman definitely helped with the American interests Berly said He gave us an in to an avenue of American business we hadnt had before strong friendship between Kin and Jack developed after ance meeting 18 months ago Hit The Road Jack climbed high into the Canadian and US charts and went top 10 in Bel gium West Germany and Kings native Holland BAND EXPANDED The Stampeders hired Gibby Lacasse drums Ian Kojima sax Dave NorrisElye sax and rhythm uitarist Gary Scrutton to dup icate the sound that had been achieved in the studio on the album Hit The Road Its so refreshing its almost like new band King said Theres more guys to relate to on stage It gives our stage presentation whole new ex citement Musicwise were into fun kier vein of material Kim and Rich werent really into that at first but now with the scope provided by the new musicians theyre finally coming around toit aswell King wrote almost half the songs on Hit The Road in cluding Playin In The Band and Sweet Love Bandit With new stage act that fea tures Berly singing and Dodson given more freedom on guitar The

texture and form our works never create two pieces the same like an artist never paints two pictures the same LOOKS FOR HIGHLIGHTS His specialty is cabachon free form hand cutting of stones He cuts specimen in halves searching for highlights After choosing highlight he slabs quarterinch piece off the rock Next he shapes and trims the slab on diamond rdrill The finishing touches involve grinding and sanding the rock into its final state before set ting This is done by hand or in tumbler but Mr Tustin pre fers to do this by hand He grinds stones on silica carbide grinding wheel with WcWaiitTifllemA diamond dust sandpaper As the stone approaches its final state finer paste is used to prevent scratches and chip ping The process takes about two hours The same process using tumbler similar to miniature cement mixer takes about six weeks Tumbling does what nature does on beach he said BATHED MANY TIMES Several stones are place in tumbler in coarse mixture of silicone carbide rotating 24 hours day for about three weeks They are then placed in medium mixture for another two weeks and finally rotated in fine mixture of time oxide powder for polishing for about five days The
